Process in D state with st driver

Hi, I do nightly backups on tape. Every 3 to 4 weeks a process is stuck in D state while accessing the drive: 12398 ?D 0:00 /usr/sbin/amcheck -ms daily There are no messages in the log. Only a reboot can remove this process. lsscsi --long [0:0:0:0]tapeTANDBERG TDC 4222

Two nfsd bugs in 2.4.x

Hi, Since I switched to the kernel nfsd I have troubles exporting my filesystems. I think in kernel 2.2.x there was no problem, neither was it with the userspace nfsd. Currently I run kernel 2.4.5pre1 on the server. 1. When I try to boot one of my diskless clients (kernel 2.0.34), it mounts its

2.4.1-pre10: Does Reiserfs eat files?

Hi, when I came to my computer this morning, I noticed that the file ~/.netscape/history.dat was missing. So I tried to copy over a backup copy from another computer and got "permission denied". I realized that the file was still there but not accessible at all, even by root. Here's an strace of

Oops in 2.4.0-ac2

Hi, I got an oops with 2.4.0-ac2. It said "Kernel Panic: Attempt to kill init" or similar. The oops didn't make it into the log but I photographed it and reconstructed it from the photos (USB digital cams are a great thing :-). After the oops, the machine was still responsive to SysRq and ping bu

2.2.18: Thread problem with smbfs

Hi, I hava a strange problem with smbfs. My application creates threads that copy files from a mounted SMB share to the local disk. When I run the application normally, there's no problem. However when I run it in gdb 4.18 or 5.0, one of the threads goes into the D state (not always), and the who

2.2.18pre23 hang

Hi, I had 4 hangs of my server in the last days. The first was with 2.2.18pre17, compiled with gcc 2.95.2. The next two were with 2.2.18pre23, compiled with gcc 2.95.2. Then I recompiled with gcc 2.7.2.3 and had another hang. Unfortunately there are no logs or oopses. The machine was just dead.

test10 won't boot

Hi, test10, compiled with gcc 2.95.2, won't boot on one of my machine. It stops after the "now booting the kernel" message. Yes, I have configured Virtual Terminal and VGA text console. The configuration also contains Reiserfs (as a module) but that shouldn't make a difference. The system is a
